Welcome message from the Rev. Scott Murray


Greetings and Peace to you,

Thank you for stopping by our home page. We hope you will join us on Sunday morning for worship if your schedule allows it. 

Our service is shaped by the Anglican tradition, but we have our own unique liturgy which is warm, meditative, and refreshing.  Each Sunday the eucharist is celebrated, and within that you’ll often find not a normal sermon but a time occupied by guided discussion of the scripture readings for that Sunday. This is not a bible study, but a gathering of minds and heart to discern how ancient sacred texts speak to each of us today. 

Most of our members are not Anglican/Episcopalian, but from denominations across the board, and we welcome persons of other faiths as well. Everyone has their own path, but the way is made easier when one is in an open and forbearing community.

Our diversity in nationalities and denominations has created a beautiful space of acceptance and love, which many former members mention they missed upon returning to their home country. 

If you have any questions, please feel free to mail me from the contact page.

Scott Murray
